My Rating: 3.4
Three neighbors, Ange, Fran and Essie, all have secrets. When Isabelle, a single woman, moves into this family cul-de-sac, everyone wonders why. As they get to know Isabelle, secrets start to be revealed
I enjoyed the multiple POVs and how it made you feel the absolutely and total exhaustion of motherhood. It also captured many nuances of Australia life. The reason I didn't rate it higher is that none of the characters had depth and all felt a bit of martyrs with their woe is me or hard done by attitudes for things in their life. It felt that no one had passion and they were all quite flat. Still, I would read more by Hepworth.
